I mentioned the 6 months as a reminder that we had looked at this, not as a complain at all. I should admit taht I had forgotten of it until I saw the new Thunderbird relases recently (and that I have a bit more of time these weeks). > > You mentioned vagrant in your last message but I failed to see how > > vagrant is used and if this variable is needed (it can be set with > > "thunderbird -g"). > > The intention here was simply that we don't need to rework the whole > thing at the day we need or want to implement support for this.

It's a small fix (once identified the problem) so if you have something in mind please go ahead :-) as long as people don't have problems with having "export DEBUG=1" and then Thunderbird failing to run it will be good (it did confuse me for a while at my partner's computer). Either way, if it helps: Option 1: renaming variables non-intrusive commit (I hope): https://salsa.debian.org/carlespina/thunderbird/-/commit/6661e140ea793deaeab4d583f345bb914e8b53ef Option 2: unsets variables (I think that non-intrusive as well) https://salsa.debian.org/carlespina/thunderbird/-/commit/591c13324a102e8ae8ebaadfdc11d3a9dbffecbc Option 3: a series of cleanups that I had done in May while understanding the wrapper: https://salsa.debian.org/carlespina/thunderbird/-/commits/thunderbird-launcher-variables/ If I could help in anything just let me know. And thanks very much for your work on Thunderbird :-) it's a big package (I can say after using git :-) ) -- Carles Pina i Estany https://carles.pina.cat
